Unseen Vulnerabilities: The Escalating Insider and Supply Chain Threats to Security of Critical Infrastructure

In today’s episode, we tackle one of the most challenging areas for organisations—supply chain risk management. As the backbone of critical infrastructure, supply chains are increasingly exposed to sophisticated insider threats, third-party risks, and state-sponsored attacks.   From high-profile incidents involving insider threats at Qantas and Leipzig-Halle Airport to the global impact of the MOVEit supply chain attack, this episode explores the real-world challenges facing critical infrastructure sectors today.    We examine the Australian ⁠Security of Critical Infrastructure Act 2018⁠ (SOCI Act) and its subordinate rules, which set essential requirements for managing supply chain risks and mitigating insider threats.   Learn how ⁠⁠Pentagram's Advisory⁠'s comprehensive online course on ⁠⁠How to Establish a Supply Chain Security Risk Management⁠ ⁠ addresses these issues through a focus on supply chain resilience, security, and insider threat mitigation.    This episode is essential listening for security leaders and practitioners seeking practical strategies to safeguard their supply chains, comply with SOCI regulatory requirements, and fortify critical infrastructure against emerging threats.
